Yeah, soz bez. He was on radio six a while ago giving his best recipe. Good call on the tech bro lookup. Did you see the Netflix series Startup? They played a blinder in that the actual techy was a girl. But she was just as 'badass' (and you may imagine me wiggling my fingers in the air there) as the dodgy business bloke and gangster she had as business partners. Sorry Spoiler alert.
Though back to reality, a company I worked for, late 2000s, the tech team, in which I had a minor role, interviewed for a new 'engineer', or coder as is the modern name, and one, noooo, was a lady. In the post-interview discussion, for some reason held just sitting around in the office, it was suggested by the team leader bloke, that on one hand she was clearly the best, but on the other we wouldn't be able to say fuck and fart in the office any more. But their consciences got the better of them, and she just had to put up with that.
